    We never recovered from 2008 either. The rich just got to win for 17 years, doctor the numbers and tell people the economy is doing great.

      No, but we’ve gone almost 20 years without major banks going nearly bankrupt simultaneously. Also, unemployment is low across the West, housing prices keep climbing, and public and private debt are through the roof. It’s starting to feel like 2008 again, but this time it will be even worse.
